The Un. wants money for the space and he is paying for it, so where is the problem?
Not knowing the full extent of his problems are medication available to help him?
Isn't there a "Government Agency" that would cover a situation such as this?
I know, a lot of questions but I am very interested in a situation like this.
Good luck.

No Federal agency gives a damn right now. Official policy in disability seems to be pray and God will help you. Enforcement of ADA rules has fallen to the lowest level since passage of ADA years ago.
In this case the University wants bodies in rooms, not dollars in pockets. A kid with a single keeps another kid out of a dorm room. This is a balancing act betwen a "reasonable accomodation" for a disabled student and the need of a non-disabled student for a bed in a dorm.
